4G LTE Support

4G LTE Support

Compared to the Moto X, the Moto G's biggest drawback lies in the fact that the device doesn't support 4G LTE. While the 4G network is known for delivering content at faster data speeds to smartphones and tablets all over the world, the exclusion of the same from Moto G could be based on the fact that Motorola wanted to keep the price tag as low as possible.

But that might be understandable since the emerging markets doesn't have that great a backing for the 4G service.

The Moto X, on the other hand, supports LTE and outsmarts the Moto G in that respect. But as we said, looking at the bigger picture, it won't make much of a difference in emerging markets
